Just as the Kentucky Wildcats appear to be trending in the right direction comes a matchup with the 19th-ranked Tennessee Volunteers in a Southeastern Conference battle Saturday.
The Volunteers are seven-point favorites in the latest Kentucky vs. Tennessee odds from William Hill Sportsbook, and the over-under for total points scored is 135.
Over the past four-plus years, the proprietary computer model has generated an impressive profit of over $2,200 for $100 players on its top-rated college basketball picks against the spread.
Springer and playmaker Santiago Vescovi (9.1 points) combine for 6.2 assists and 2.3 steals per contest, and John Fulkerson does the work inside, scoring 10.9 and grabbing 5.8 rebounds.
That includes wins against Auburn and Vanderbilt over the past week, with four different players scoring at least 16 points over the two games.
They have strong defense in the middle with 6-foot-10 freshman Isaiah Jackson and 7-foot Olivier Sarr , who combine for 12.4 rebounds and four blocked shots per game.
